Abstract

A computer includes a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to input strain data measuring mechanical strain on a vehicle camera and operation data of a vehicle component, the operation data describing at least one of an output or a state of the vehicle component, to a machine learning program that outputs a displacement of the vehicle camera from a neutral position based on the strain data and the operation data. The instructions further include instructions to identify a transformation matrix that transforms data from the vehicle camera to a coordinate system of the vehicle camera in the neutral position based on the output displacement of the vehicle camera, to apply the transformation matrix to data collected by the vehicle camera to generate transformed data, and to actuate one of the vehicle component or a second vehicle component based on the transformed data.
